KAL-ELLE JAGGER | LOST IN SPACE
A stunning track by a lady who performs her absolute heart out and leaves it all on the table for us to see. The vocals in this track stitch the sublime production by none other than the fantastic Syst3m Glitch together which serve as a veritable feast for your ears. The narrative of this track is ultimately about holding on to the positive parts of your life and keeping the faith in such troubling times we all find ourselves in. Great work!
XYLE | THE RETURN FROM EXILE
It's been awhile since we've heard from this Electro Artist from Toronto but we needn't have worried at all. He's back, and back with an altogether different sound but at it's heart quintessentially XYLE. It's a club orientated track which conjures images of flinging yourself around a dark club setting with wild abandon and from listening I get the sense that it's that feeling of freedom which stirs at the heart of everything he creates. Enjoy!
EHRAH FEAT POWER ROB | A LITTLE TIME
Aztecs newest signing in EHRAH from Montreal teams up with Marylands Power Rob (Bradley) to deliver a track that's as catchy as hell. At it's very heart it delivers all those little Synth nuances which will no doubt please the purists. I've raved about Robs vocal before but the EHRAH production put it through its paces which Rob cuts through like an aural katana. It's impactful and perfect for those night drives, stream it and see!
TREVOR SOMETHING | I JUST WANT TO DIE
Is this the end of Trevor Something? It appears so. What does not exist cannot die but in whatever guise he returns in or whether he vacates the scene altogether he's left a legacy of work that will set the bar for years to come. This new album 'The Death of' suggests a work that he's always had in his heart to create. The track 'I just want to die' is so cleverly produced I had to showcase it!
DONBOR | REMOTENESS
Donbor serves us all a face meltingly good Album in 'Remoteness' and in fact its the titular track I've chosen to showcase today as it's slaps harder than Will Smith defending his wife. It's the perfect Darksynth track to make you move, if you don't I suggest you check your pulse as you may very well be dead! Turn it up and play it loud you know you want to!
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS | HEARTBEATS
There isn't enough superlatives to describe this track but I'm going to make an attempt. It's absolutely gorgeous. Ethereally refined, this is an entire mood set to music. As refreshing as a cool summer breeze on warm sunny day and ultimately as seductive! Somehow, someway this sounds more grown up, more in tune with the Artists modus operandi in giving you that ultimate retrowave experience of today whilst paying homage to yesteryear!
JACKET. AND GRAYSTARS | TAKE MY LIGHT
A sublime slice of Synth by Jacket. and Graystars. A vibe rich melody that is masterfully produced with the help of another legend in Van Derand. The vocals punch a hole through the Synths which help deliver an overall very pleasing listening experience and practically an insta-buy for me and to be fair on listening it should be for you too!
